Explanatory Note
This
Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends the Schedule 13D with respect to shares
of Common Stock (each a “Share,” and collectively, the “Shares”)
of the Issuer previously filed by BuildGroup Management, LLC (the “Reporting Person”)
on June 10, 2020 (the “Schedule 13D”). The Shares reported pursuant to the Schedule
13D, as amended by this Amendment, as being beneficially owned by the Reporting Person are held of record by BuildGroup LLC (the “Record
Holder”). The Reporting Person holds voting and dispositive power over the Shares subject to the
terms of Investment Management Agreements entered into by and between the Reporting Person and the Record Holder and no change in beneficial
ownership is reported herein. The voting and dispositive powers over the Shares held by the Reporting Person is exercisable by the investment
committee thereof, of which A. Lanham Napier, Chief Executive Officer of the Reporting Person and the Record Holder and a current director
of the Issuer, is one member. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Schedule
13D.
Item 3.
Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following at the
end of Item 4:
On November 1, 2022, Voya Financial,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Origami Squirrel Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and an indirect
wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
“Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement,
Merger Sub shall merge with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”), with the Issuer surviving the Merger and becoming a
wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. Under the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share
of Series A Preferred Stock will be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive cash in an amount
equal to the Convertible Preferred Liquidation Amount (as defined in the Merger Agreement).
Concurrently with the execution
of the Merger Agreement, the Record Holder entered into a Support Agreement with Parent, Merger Sub and the Issuer (the “Support
Agreement”) pursuant to which, subject to the terms of the Support Agreement, the Record Holder agreed, during the time the
Support Agreement is in effect, at any annual or special meeting of the shareholders of the Issuer, however called, including any adjournment
or postponement thereof, that it will vote all shares of Series A Preferred Stock beneficially owned by it (the “Subject Shares”)
to (a) adopt the Merger Agreement, and approve any actions related thereto as and when such Merger Agreement or such actions are submitted
for the consideration and vote of the shareholders of the Issuer, (b) against any Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement),
or any other transaction, proposal, agreement or action made in opposition to adoption of the Merger Agreement or in competition or inconsistent
with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and (c) against any other action, agreement or transaction
involving the Issuer that is intended to, or that would be reasonably likely to prevent, impede, or, in any material respect, interfere
with or delay the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
The Support Agreement contains customary
restrictions on the Subject Shares, including with respect to (a) the transfer of such Subject Shares, (b) the exercise of appraisal rights
or dissenters’ rights with respect to such Subject Shares, (c) public announcement by the Record Holder with respect to the Support
Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated therein (subject to certain exceptions) and (d) the solicitation or making of any proposal or offer that
constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal.

The Support Agreement terminates
upon the first to occur of (a) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, (b) the Effective Time, (c) the termination
of the Support Agreement by written notice from Parent to the Record Holder, (d) the date of any Prohibited Amendment or (e) a Change
of Recommendation (as such terms are defined in the Merger Agreement).
The foregoing summary descriptions
of the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the
